What's the flutter command for screen recording the simulator?

Question

Simple enough to screen record your app(an option on the emulator) in Android studio for an Android app. Searching around I can't find a way to record on the iOS simulator(In android Studio). I could use Quicktime but thought there might be a flutter command for it?

If you want to take a screenshot of iOS Simulator or record a video, you can do it by using the utility simctl from the Terminal which allows us to control the simulator with commands.

To record video, you can do it only through Terminal by typing:

xcrun simctl io booted recordVideo <filename>.<file extension>

Replace <filename> with the name you want and <file extension> with .mov .

To stop recording, press Control+C to stop recording then check the file inside the Home folder ( Finder>Go>Home )

The exported file is in hevc codec, if you want different codec, type the following to see the list:

xcrun simctl help io
